This was a wedding I’ve been looking forward to for what seems like forever! Eliza and Chris were so excited, and had a great vision for their wedding ceremony, right from the beginning, and I was so glad they found me and let me act as their guides in creating a beautiful ceremony.
They eventually decided to have their ceremony in Central Park, with just their immediate family and, oh, you know, a few dozen random onlookers who joined us to watch, too. We took advantage of the intimate setting to include a ring warming, passing the rings through all of the guests, to warm them, bless them, and imbue them with happy thoughts for a good marriage. We also took a popular reading (“The Blessing of the Hands”) and incorporated it into the handfasting and the ring vows.
The weather was perfect, and I could tell that the bride and groom were so happy to share this moment with those closest to them and finally be married! I am so, so glad that they found me, and that I got to be a part of their wedding. Love and congratulations, Eliza & Chris!!
